1. From Chaotic Memory

[Instrumental]

2. Something In The Past

The whole world vanished in the darkness.
It is fear? No... Horror has disappeared
in the darkness of night. It's panic!
It's insanity. They have fused
together in order not to let You come
to your senses.

There is no future,
the darkness has shrouded all around.
There is no death, there is no life either,
eternity is the only thing that exists,
but it's monotonous.
The darkness has shrouded life itself.

Night has come, and life has gone away.
There is night and darkness,
the moon is just a reflection of a light night.
But how can I still believe in the charm of night?
Well, but I want to come back to the world,
where there is less lie and were reason rules.

There were only a few thoughts,
risen from his memories,
which origin he couldn't explain.
He didn't remember anything
except asking himself the same questions.
"Who am I? Where am I from?
Where am I?" He couldn't answer them.
He also wanted to know why he was in panic fear
before going to sleep.

Anyway, everything was in the past,
and the past as much
as the future is just time,
the present is eternity.

But still there was
something in the past.

There was something...!

3. In Two Time

Night.
I can hear her voice.
The thought of freedom
is nothing in the chaos of false ideas
and idle memories.

Life, sleep and thought
are senseless and disordered
and it's only a phantom of hope,
that revives visions
from the chaotic memory
of the hazy past.
It's like two sides of the whole:
freedom and slavery,
day and night, sleep and life!

But the time has come.
Somebody's voice
doesn't leave me alone.
The only way
out for me is to fall asleep.

There are only a few seconds
just a few moments to fall asleep again.
There will be sleep again,
there will be life again.

But is it a real life or just fiction?
It's only a wish to turn something
which is desired into reality.
It is moon light again
and everything repeats.

You are the master of everything,
everything belongs to you.
The voice is heard again
but it doesn't attract,
it commands to come back.
It follows me.
I have a few seconds to wake.

4. Rebellion

The night's dark, it's raining, and the skies are shadowed
The borders of their gothic town cut through the dark

High towers and sharp roves rise, disappearing in the dark.
The square is full of gallows with ropes, carrying the dead
That rock in the wind...
Hooks violently tear their bodies and legs to pieces...

At an alarming sound of the bells death arises..
Death arises from dreams
With you, fires and bayonets

So many heads have been taken with them
As if they were roughly picked flowers.

Deep cough of desolate cannons
Counts the groans of passing hours.
Here comes one.

Absurdity is sensed in the fires burning
And in the cries full of strength.
See this fresh blood from each vein,
Feel that savage fear from tension:
Chaos doesn't rule long...
And everything calms down,
Gets back to the centuries of its wait
In the realm of dreams

5. Buried Alive

It's very naive of You to believe in the dream,
to believe that you can fall asleep forever.
In the morning the body was unconscious.
He was sure to be dead.
He was to be buried.
Only a stranger didn't believe
that he was dead,
but nobody believed that it is was a
lethargic dream.

His body was lying under
several metres of humid soil.

He didn't find the rest, he only knew,
what everlasting sleep was.
He wanted to become a master,
but he was just a slave.
He was sleeping and didn't know
what his sleep turned out to be.
And still he fell asleep in that world,
but could his dream contain another dream?

It would have been worse to wake up
and find himself below ground.
There were so many people buried alive,
who were lying somewhere nearby,
they were dying of the thought
that they had been interred too early.

The main point was that there was
no way out and they were
going to stay there forever,
that fear would shroud their mind
and death would come like black dream.

6. Awakening

Suddenly he woke up.
Darkness and silence are around.
It's such a stillness that he hasn't heard
of even during that profound dream.

The darkness is eating his eyes up,
the lungs are compress because
there isn't enough air,
the crams in his muscles don't let him move

how can a man stand that?
"Where am I now?" "Am I sleep?"
"Is It Reality?" "Is it death?"
"No Is It Life." "But where am?"
I can hear a sound.
And dream comes back.

When he was getting weaker,
he woke up only at night
there was deep stillness
and gloom around him.
However, the slightest noise
scared him and he fell asleep again.

Then he began waking up more often,
but there was the same darkness around him.
There was no air.

It was panic.
He took a deep breath
and uttered a cry, a wail,
appeared from the most dreadful dream
in a death struggle.
A sound! What a sound up there!
They have heard him.
They know, they know.

7. Like Fallen Stars

My memory is a bloody wound that has been draining my brain...
It is devouring me from inside...
I was unconscious all past years
And I will remain this way in the future.

Oh, abyss of the oceans of consciousness!
All my life I have been reaching for you.
I looked back only after losing it,
But the flame of sorrow burnt everything inside.

Oh, fragrance of the night that used to be in my heart so long ago.
I was only able to sense a bitter taste of losses...
I remember sweet breath of the wind and the sounds of that forest
But where am I now?

Oh, forgotten tears and revelations of the soul.
Who can see the misery in me
Along with the fear depriving me of the last thoughts?
And my memory escapes from me as if in a phantasmal dream

You have deceived me, and taken what I used to have...
And all the bridges to the places where we're expected, have been burnt down
My chances of jumping are like fallen stars,
But I will get the chance of salvation

8. Where Everything Was Different

He heard someone was fracturing the boards...
He couldn't remember for how long he hadn't seen it.
It was light! Nobody but him
could realize what that light meant
It was Light. And there was some figure there.
It was him! He came to save him.
It was him. It was a stranger!
The stranger didn't say a word,
but his motions produced some sound.

He had been lying so many years
in cold and damp ground, foreign ground,
which had almost swallowed him alive
just like those miserable slaves of their own dreams.
They were still lying in the ground,
greedy, insatiable of new lives.

But now he is free,
as has never been in his life.
He is free.
But it was so difficult to become free.
But where is he? Where is the stranger?
He has disappeared.
He said only one phrase and vanished.
Now it's high time to go where everything began,
where everything was different.

9. November Night

They haven't accepted him.
No! They have banished him.
They haven't understood him,
for died so long ago.
But the dead can't walk
and can't speak.
He is dead for them.
He was banished.

But it is his castle.
He was born here
and he will die here, too

He will die He will also
be born here again.
Pain
Where does it come from?

What a burden.
It's the pain of his soul.
All his wounds
made him suffer greatly.
It's time to fall asleep
But this time - forever.

The pain began to pass off.
He also thought, that he had to vanish
and he was probably more sure
of that than the stranger.
He had been in a state of sheer
and peaceful reflection
until the tower clock stroke midnight
He was still alive, when the dawn began.
Then his had fell down unwillingly
and he took his last breath.

10. Disappearing In The Dark

[Instrumental]

11. From The Abyss To Misty Heaven

There were dead bodies all around
even vultures were not attracted
by the chary carcasses at the moment.
Every second animals and people
were dying of lighting,
which streaks were
surprisingly accurate.

All that completed the scene
of decaying corpses and burning dead.
A leaden low sky was above them
The storm clouds were witting homes

That continued for a few months
from the day his body had been found in his castle.
Nobody knew how he could appear
after he was buried so long before.

A lot of people saw his phantom,
which was crying for sympathy
but nobody helped him.
And people were continually dying.
A number of victims
of the sky was rising.

Once the sky was full of moon light,
once it was covered with the patterns,
created by the nature itself.
But at the moment people
were dying somewhere,
and senseless creatures
were coming in to the world
somewhere else.

And he did appear somewhere
he, who was free from all his sins
he was a master of everything
and nothing, a slave of dream,
a master of eternity,
a human being.

12. Broken Dreams

Some years passed after his birth.
But he remembered everything.
The baby couldn't forget anything.
He remember cicadas chirping
that moonlight night,
he remembered the moon road
in the darkness,
he remembered the alluring light,
which didn't leave his soul in peace,
which was calling, attracting him.

He remembered everything,
he kept in mind even that was just going to happen.
He couldn't have forgotten that!
he would remember it forever he would never forget the charm of that night,
of the moon, of the dream.
Everything had gone.
Everything was over.
but once he would probably see that moonlight again,
that moon road, that illusion, that life, that DREAM.

13. Golden Age

[originally by Kreator]

Let me take you down
Deeper than you know
Reality is gone
Yet so much left to show
Let me take you down
Let us look inside
There's still so much to come
It's time to say goodbye

Broken dreams
Misery replaced by constant ecstasy
Wide awake open wide
Existence of a better kind
Waits for you waits for me
Our minds become forever free
Free of fear, free of rage
The coming of the Golden Age for all

Let me take you down
Let life fade away
The ritual has begun
Your life begins today
Let me take you down
Explore the other side
Enlightened as we drown
It's time to say goodbye

Don't you turn around now
Don't you be afraid now
Just turn another page down
Celebrate the Golden Age

14. Run Through The Night

[originally by Accept]

After all we've done - our past is gone
Future is no more what it used to be
When we have been more sensible
And our world was safe
I'm living in this empty room
A room without a door

I run through the night
I can't handle my fears
I run through the night
Cannot hide my tears
I run through the night

I'm longing for a smile - dying for a little hope
Can't you see my pain
I'm with you but - still alone

At times when we're more sensible
I need you more and more
I am living in this empty room
A room without a door

I run through the night
I can't handle my fears
I run through the night
Cannot hide my tears
I run through the night - I run through the night
